The Babel configuration for static-scripts is pretty basic right now.

I’m opening this issue to gather feedback on the Babel configuration, and see what would be a good configuration for the community.

The current configuration is available here

In my refactor I'm simplified this just to babel-preset-env. (https://github.com/babel/babel/tree/master/packages/babel-preset-env)

It has a very active community and is guaranteed to manage standards for standard es5/es6/... JS.
